Do we lose taste buds as we age?

Between the ages of 40 and 50, the number of taste buds decreases, and the rest begin to shrink,losing mass vital to their operation.  After age 60, you may begin to lose the ability to distinguish the taste of sweet, salty, sour, and bitter foods.

Unfortunately, yes. As we get older, our taste buds begin to fade and also begin to  disappear.
Hope this helps!

The question is incorrect, the correct question is;

Which of the following ground-state electron configurations represents the atom that has the

lowest first-ionization energy?

a) 1s2

b) 1s22s2

c) 1s22s22p6

d) 1s22s22p63s23p1

e) 1s22s22p63s23p3

The correct ground state configuration that represents the atom that has the lowest first ionization energy is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹.

The first ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from the outermost shell of an atom.

Ionization energy decreases down the group as number of shells increases but increases across the period as nuclear charge increase.

As the number of shells increases, the degree of shielding or screening decreases it easier to remove the outermost electron.

The elements whose ground state electronic configurations were shown are;

Helium - 1s²  

Beryllium - 1s² 2s²  

Neon - 1s² 2s² sp⁶  

Aluminum - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹    

Phosphorus - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p³

Aluminium (1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹) is a metal so it has the lowest first ionization energy since metals are highly electropositive.

_Au2S3 + _H2---&gt; _Au + _H2S
timofeeve [1]
The answer is A because if you place the first two numbers 1 and 3
Au=2
S=3
H=6
It has to equal to the product so then you put in the last two numbers 2 and 3
Au=2
S=3
H=6

When the following reaction comes to equilibrium, will the concentrations of the reactants or products be greater? Does the answ
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

At equilibrium, the concentration of the reactants will be greater than the concentration of the products. This does not depend on the initial concentrations of the reactants and products.

Explanation:

The value of Kc gives us an idea of the extent of the reaction. A big Kc (Kc > 1) means that in the equilibrium there are more products than reactants, and the opposite happens for a small Kc (Kc < 1). The equilibrium is reached no matter what the initial concentrations are.

The value of the equilibrium constant is relatively SMALL; therefore, the concentration of reactants will be GREATER THAN the concentration of products. This result is INDEPENDENT OF the initial concentration of the reactants and products.
